elastin stain for 70um sections

Taffy,
I am not aware of any elastin stain for thick sections. I have tried many
different elastin stains on ground sections with no real success. The
elastin fibers stain but the polymers pick up the iodine giving a brown
background which is not very pretty. If protocols have been developed it
probably is a "trade secret".
I hope you find something. Good luck!!
Best regards,
Cathy
